Qin Yao had a small meeting, Fu Qingyan was sitting on the left, Jiang Jingyuan was sitting on the right, and Eunuch Gao was standing at the door guarding the door. If he didn’t know the inside story, he would think that he was going to check some prince’s fief again. Since King Qinghe was defeated, Qin Yao's image suddenly became taller. Many people looked down on him before, but now they have to weigh their own weight first.

"Your Majesty?" Jiang Jingyuan held his chin. Although he had passed the scientific examination, he was in fact a military commander. Such a pleasing thing doesn't seem like a problem that should be discussed with him. ?Qin Yao smiled very easy-going: "Mr. An has thought about it? I'm listening." Jiang Jingyuan swallowed: "Your Majesty, I really don't have much experience in this matter. Why don't you ask Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu knows , he knows best."

Fu Qingyan glared at him, then turned to Qin Yao: "Your Majesty, this, since childhood, has always been the one in the Xiaguan's family who has been chasing the Xiaguan around. The Xiaguan really doesn't know how to please people." He didn't say anything. Fortunately, Qin Yao became even more angry when he talked about it. He had touched on Xia Rui's past affairs for a long time, and found that Xia Rui's treatment of Fu Qingyan was really unusual, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they fell in love and killed each other: "Fu Qing? "

Fu Qingyan replied: "The minister is here."

Qin Yao said with a smile: "Half a month's salary."

Fu Qingyan: ...

Fu Qingyan: "Your Majesty, can I ask what is the matter?"

Qin Yao still looked at him with a smile: "Because I'm not happy."

Jiang Jingyuan coughed and said, "Your Majesty, let's deal with it from the beginning. Do you think Lord Xia likes you?" Qin Yao seemed a little confused: "I don't know." Jiang Jingyuan said helplessly: "That's right. Do you have a good impression?" Qin Yao thought about it seriously, then shook his head seriously: "I don't know."

Jiang Jingyuan: ...

Fu Qingyan took over the conversation: "Your Majesty, according to what you see, Lord Xia must have a good impression of you." Qin Yao was obviously very happy: "Oh? Why do you know that?" Fu Qingyan said with a smile: "Hold on to Lord Xia. With that temperament, if I hate you deeply, I am afraid that I will not stay in this court willing to serve you." Qin Yao thought for a while, and felt that what Fu Qingyan said made sense: "It is true, it is true."

Seeing Qin Yao's happiness, Fu Qingyan quickly asked, "Your Majesty, what is the half-monthly salary of the subordinate?"

Qin Yao said: "You have no jokes, all the fines have been fined, how can I return them to you, just treat it as filling the national treasury."

Fu Qingyan: ...

Jiang Jingyuan tapped his forehead with his folding fan: "Your Majesty, I really have no experience in this matter. You also know how the man in my house got here, so why should I worry about it?" Qin Yao Looking at him: "Mr. An also wants to contribute to the national treasury?" Jiang Jingyuan opened his mouth, and finally had no choice but to say: "It's fine if it's a woman, just raw rice and cooked rice, when the time comes, she doesn't want to be with you, but she will also be with you." Yes, but Your Majesty and Lord Xia have already, um, already cooked, so what else can we do?"

Fu Qingyan smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have a solution!"

Qin Yao said: "Oh? What way?"

Fu Qingyan replied: "Your Majesty, pretend to be sick. If Your Majesty is sick, the younger brother will definitely accompany you. When the time comes, when your majesty seizes the opportunity to confess his feelings, the younger brother will definitely agree." Now, Qin Yao doesn't think he's rude. Originally, the three of them sat here to discuss things that had nothing to do with etiquette.

Qin Yao clapped his hands and said, "Good idea. I remember that when I was young, I didn't want to go to school. I also pretended to be sick. I pretended to be good. It can be said to be handy."

Jiang Jingyuan pursed the corners of his mouth, as if he had accidentally learned about His Majesty's little secret, and wondered if he would be silenced, it was really worrying.Fu Qingyan squeezed his wallet, he never accepts bribes, unlike other aristocratic families who have their own business and savings, and he doesn't know if the half-month salary is enough for the family's expenses.

The next day, Qin Yao vomited blood early in the morning.

On the third day, all the imperial physicians were announced to enter the palace to attend and recuperate.

From the fifth day onwards, he couldn't afford to be sick, the eldest son was too young, and the few remaining royal brothers were all sealed up as kings in their respective territories, and all affairs in the court were handed over to the three kings. , Duke Hu Guo and Duke Hui Guo were both getting old, and in the end everything fell on Jiang Jingyuan. He was too busy, and Fu Qingyan naturally didn't stop. He stayed in the palace almost every day, but he lost weight in a few days.

On the eighth day, Qin Yao hadn't gotten up yet, and Xia Rui felt that something was wrong. At first, Qin Yao wanted to pretend to be sick, but Xia Rui was aware of it. He talked on and on for a long time, saying that Qin Yao would do anything to get him into the palace, but Qin Yao always knew how to measure. In Xia Rui's view, not going to court for five days is already Qin Yao's limit, prince He was still young, but his uncles and uncles were in their prime of life. Even though King Qinghe's affairs had just ended, things would inevitably change after a long time.

"Eunuch Gao." Xia Rui bowed to Eunuch Gao: "Your Majesty is awake today?" Eunuch Gao sighed: "Oh, Lord Xia is here. If Your Majesty is awake, I don't know how happy he would be." Other courtiers were not allowed to visit the palace. Except for Jiang Jingyuan and Fu Qingyan's confidantes, Xia Rui was the first to enter the palace. This was Eunuch Gao's own idea, but he was also sure that Qin Yao would not blame him of.

Xia Rui walked into the bedroom, and saw Qin Yao lying on the bed with a pale face.

It has been more than four months since he left this palace, but he feels as if he was still living here yesterday. But he still stayed here, and the plain brocade flowers painted on it made him love it for a long time.

When Qin Yao didn’t wear court clothes, he was no different from an ordinary family son. After he ascended the throne, what the previous emperor left him was a mess. The only son in the family, and only the queen mother and the only daughter, died early before Qin Yao ascended the throne. The Qi family had no support. The help of the Empress Qi's family was handed over. Qin Yao's brothers who were somewhat capable all died when the previous dynasty seized the crown. The thirteen princes, plus Qin Xuan, who has now been executed, are nowhere to be found. Qin Yuan and Qin Yao himself, when Qin Yao ascended the throne, there were only six left.

Excessive taxation and miscellaneous taxes are quite serious in the country, and the people are in dire straits. In order to reduce taxes and save expenses, Qin Yao has reduced the expenses of the palace to a minimum. The two Yi tribes in the north and south borders are staring at each other. The old system has many disadvantages, but Qin Yao has neither financial resources nor anything. Power, even so, he still walked to the present step by step with a smile.

Xia Rui sometimes felt that Qin Yao might be born to be an emperor.

But what's so natural about it?But they were forced out by circumstances.

Xia Rui sat on the table next to the dragon bed, and leaned close to look at Qin Yao. He seldom looked at Qin Yao so unscrupulously. Dare to sweep.Qin Yao's face is very good-looking, Xia Rui was not lucky enough to meet the fourth prince Qin Yuan, only heard that he is a rare handsome boy in the world, just looking at Qin Yao, Xia Rui felt that he was already good-looking, better than him before Everyone who has seen it should look better.

Even better looking than Li Cheng.Xia Rui couldn't help laughing, how could there be any comparison between these two people.

Xia Rui thought, since he was already so presumptuous anyway, he might as well be a little more presumptuous.He stretched out his hand and touched Qin Yao's brow. Because of practicing martial arts and keeping fit, Qin Yao's skin is not as white and tender as Xia Rui's.Although he always had a smiling face in front of people, there was a faint gap between his brows. He must have thought about many more things when he was alone. Thinking about it, this was such a chaotic court.

Xia Rui leaned close to Qin Yao's ear and said softly, "Didn't you pretend to be sick and want me to come? Here I am."

Qin Yao remained motionless, his face was still pale, his eyes were closed, and his lips were also permeated with paleness, making people feel distressed just looking at them.

"Lord Xia?" A female voice suddenly came from behind.Shocked, Xia Rui stood up quickly, lowered her head, only saw the corner of the woman's purple skirt, and hurriedly saluted, "Empress Empress." : "Master Xia, get up quickly." After speaking, he stretched out his hand to help Xia Rui, halfway out, but retracted again.

Xia Rui didn't really wait for her to help her, so she quickly stood up and said, "It's time for me to retire, too."

The corridors in the palace have always been long and winding, and the spring flowers bloom and fall, paving the entire corridor.Xia Rui stepped on the petals on the ground and hurried past, perhaps because of the unspeakable matter between him and Qin Yao, which made him feel that he was sorry for Song Yucha, the empress, and it was clear that he was not the one who provoked her at the beginning. Qin Yao.

Xia Rui suddenly felt that something was wrong, and stopped.

When Song Yincha first helped him, the movement of withdrawing her hand was too abrupt, and he clearly saw a hard object protruding from Song Yincha's waist through the belt when Song Yincha stretched out her hand.Xia Rui was stunned, changed direction hastily, and ran to Qin Yao's bedroom again, just in time to meet Jiang Jingyuan at the intersection. "Xiangyun, why are you in such a hurry?" Jiang Jingyuan looked at Xia Rui almost running all the way. I'm going to the bedroom!"

Jiang Jingyuan caught Xia Rui subconsciously: "What are you doing so early? It will take half an hour before I can go in and see His Majesty."

"Hurry up!" Xia Rui patted Jiang Jingyuan's shoulder: "It's because there is still half an hour, and it's still too late!" "What are you talking about?" Same as Qin Yao, the only difference is that he is gentle and mocking, and it is the first time I have seen him so anxious.

"The Empress is going to assassinate! Do you know what I'm talking about! Song Yucha is going to assassinate!" Xia Rui wanted to grab Jiang Jingyuan's ear.Hearing this, Jiang Jingyuan stopped in his tracks: "You said, what?" Xia Rui shook his shoulder: "I said, the queen is going to assassinate! Do you understand?"

Jiang Jingyuan looked bewildered: "Empress?"
